Answer:

B. Insures deposits in banks

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for people to trust the bank deposits and to promote and encourage people to trust the financial system of the United States of America, the Federal Deposit insurance Corporation, warantees the security and payability of deposits up to $250,000 US dollars, when a bank or financial institution fails, this in order to create confidence and calmness in the public when banks and other financial institutions go to bankrupcy or fail to pay the deposits.
